Greetings Sweet Friends,Happy 4th of July to You just a few days early...........lolHave you got any plans yet??

We don't.....have just been so busy this week doing all my things you will read about and more it has sort ofsneaked up on me..........butthat's okay.......we really don't mind, celebrating just the 2 of us.Have just been out groceryshopping today with a quick runto Wally World afterwards. It isso scorching out there, I couldnot wait to get home.........Home Sweet Home where myBlessed Air conditioner is.......lolThe grocery store was plenty cooland nice, but Walmart was a bitwarmish inside, which is not funfor this girl!! lol

Anywho............

Thought some pretty flowers might make you feel happy, if you aren'thappy already! lol Flowers definitely make me happy.Most of these pics were taken by me, but a few were taken by my Son, Scott when he was hiking the Appalachian trail around5 years ago. I put names on theones I knew what they were, butthere were a few I don't know.So on with my thankfuls......

I am thankful

#1

that our kitty Molly has made

quite a miraculous recovery,getting around very well, evenran into the house a few times,eating well too.Truly amazing, again a big Thank you to those that have prayed for her. Cause we know this could only be answer to prayer!!

possibly periwinkles but not sure!#2

that one of our Sunday School

couples hosted a barbecue/poolparty on Sunday for our whole class and their children. I was not feeling well so did not get to go, bummer, but was glad hubby could go for awhile, and they all had a great time.

that one of our female students

told hubby a story about some

advice I had given her years ago,

when she was a new believer,

that helped her so much, with a

hard relationship she had. It is

always encouraging to know that

you have impacted someone in

a positive way!!

for all the things I got accomplishedthis week, that I told you on Tuesdaythat have been nagging and annoying at the back of my mind. Such a greatfeeling to have them done.

Ginger1) went thru my storage container

cabinet that was in a major uproar

from our lil darling playing in there,

which was quite handy at the time,

(she is over that now. lol), so it

was time to straighten it out, plus

got rid of lids or containers that

had no matching piece. It looks

so much better and is much

easier to find what I need now.

2) We removed some shirts from

hubbies closet that he never wears

but are in good shape, so we can

send them to Good will, so he has

more room in his closet now. Wetook that and other stuff to GoodWill so that was another things wegot done....loving this!!

Bougainvilla3) Found a jewelry holder thingie

in my closet I bought last year,

and had forgotten about...so got

that out and filled it up, and it is

great!! Will do a post and show

this neat product to you next

Tuesday.

Agapanthus4) Packed away jewelry of my

late Mother-in-law's that was

leftover after all the girls in the

family went thru it and took

what they wanted, and it has

been sitting on my dresser in

a box for over 6 months, cause

I just didn't know what to do

with the other pieces, cause

it is all nice jewelry. Hubby

said why don't you just pack

it away for now!and I thought, why didn't I think of that!~! lol

Sometimes I just think other

things have our attention and

we just don't think about

whatever it is, and then when

we give it some priority great

things happen!! lol

5) Finally tucked away some

financial records from the

change over into the New

Year. I keep them up in a

big box on my closet shelf,

but it is too heavy for me,

and kept forgetting to ask

hubby to get it down. So

remembered Monday

night!! Whoo Hoo!

Oh NO! Just got to the end and see about your SIL! Bless her heart.You've sure been busy, Nellie. It must be such a good feeling to have accomplished so many of those "little" tasks that actually take up a lot of good space in one's mind and emotions.

Happy for your daughter...and our only 4th of July plans are a wedding which my husband will officiate and I will play piano. Tonight is rehearsal.

There are so many things to thank God for and I love that your list included big stuff (glad your kitty is better) and the little things that sometimes go unnoticed. Blessings to you! Thanks for linking up at the Weekend Blog Hop at My Flagstaff Home!

Catching up!#1. Doesn't that just make your heart leap for joy when you see progress in your pet! I have surely prayed for her getting better!#2. Nothing like getting wet when your hot from the weather being muggy!#3. When there's harmony with the LORD, JOY abounds even in dire circumstances!#4-9. Yes, and throwing out things that have just become in the way. #10. So many different kinds, varieties, and colors!#11. I never get the ibis, but I do get the Sandhill cranes all the time and many times with their babies!#12. Way to go, DeeAnna!Yes, and I'm home 4 weeks earlier than last time, Praise the LORD! No more outside work for me, I'll let Rosemary and her sons do it when they do my lawn twice a month!Love you , thank you for your Love and help, Susan
